Look, if these complete morons on the Right want to vote against their self-interests and America, they are beyond help, and all I will do is keep working my a-- off to make sure people understand this.

What we have is a failure to communicate on the Left.

The truth is these people support the America-attacking blowhard because he stirs their cold blood. He makes them feel good about looking backward instead of at all the possibilities ahead. He makes them feel good about thinking they are the only thing that matters and that they have somehow been cheated out of their dark, empty lives.

They don’t want to make America better. They want to make everybody else’s lives worse.

All they are is angry, and have finally found a lewd, racist conman who can put a megaphone to their tantrums, and deal the rest of America plenty of pain. He has no goddamn answers for them or us.

What we have right now is a MASSIVE messaging problem.

From the minute the Biden Administration took power it worked like hell to tackle a global crisis that was exacerbated by the previous administration. I mean, holy s— even infrastructure got done, and do you know who has benefited most from that? White people.

If that didn’t resonate, it’s not because it didn’t happen. It’s because too many people didn’t know about it.

    Are you in a rich area?! Food’s quite cheap if we shop around, hit the crappy grocery stores, but mostly we do Aldi.

      Where I am it’s “rural” enough that I only have 2 options within 30-40 mins of my house and they’re both similarly priced. I’d have to go about an hour to somewhere that might have better prices, but I rent a garage “apartment” so I can’t buy bulk as I don’t have a freezer and my refrigerator was apparently pulled from a camper or something. It’s like a playschool “babys first refrigerator” lol
